Among those now calling for Moore, the GOP nominee for a Senate seat from Alabama, to step aside are House Speaker Paul Ryan, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and other GOP leaders. Moore is accused of molesting a 14-year-old girl in the 1980s; a second accuser came forward yesterday with charges he assaulted her when she was 16, and numerous other accounts have surfaced of Moore, then an attorney in his 30s, pursuing teenage girls.
